Twenty-five youth from across Ontario County who were nominated by their school counselors, teachers and administrators will be recognized at the annual Youth Recognition Awards to be held April 22 at the Ontario County Safety Training Facility.

Parents, families and school staff including those who nominated the students are invited to attend the awards ceremony that will take place at the county building at 2914 County Road 48 in Hopewell. The ceremony will be from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. and typically draws more than 100 people.

Ontario County Court Judge Craig Doran will be the featured speaker.

The Youth Recognition Awards program was established by the Ontario County Youth Board to acknowledge youth for the good citizenship, positive influence, fortitude, and leadership that they exhibit in their school and community.

The awards event will also recognize an adult who was nominated by community organizations for his or her advocacy and support for youth in Ontario County. The Youth Board will grant that person the “Honorable Craig Doran” award.
